YCS Dallas is history now and Erik Christensen has emerged victorious with a commanding 16-0 record! The deck he piloted the complete way to victory was none other than…. Infernoids? “Wait, what?! Infernoids went 16-0 and WON YCS Dallas? That’s impossible right?” “No way, he had to be a savage stacker!” “He opened double Reasoning every single game! Cheater!” That’s right. those are quotes directly Read more

Salutations, duelists! Welcome back to The Scoop! The absolute realest Yu-Gi-Oh! News Report on the internet, and of course it’s right here on ARG! We once lived in a world of one Forbidden and Limited lists. You built your deck for whatever format was in play, and adjusted, still according to that list, for the duration of the format. Every event you played in followed that format, unless some sort of special rule was in play, which was not often. This is what we were accustomed to, and although we complained about it plenty and had multiple suggestions in regards Read more

Good day, Duelists! Welcome back to The Scoop! This is the realest Yu-Gi-Oh! News Report that you’ll find, and of course it’s right here on ARG! Last week, we began to explore the issue of the conundrum tournament organizers and players that long for larger even turnouts face with the Casuals’ Conundrum. If you didn’t read it, please check it out right here! In a nutshell, the issue is that ARG offers high level events for players to participate in and compete for much better prizes, but they somehow still aren’t able to hit the numbers that even Regional Qualifiers Read more

Hello again, Duelists! Welcome back to The Scoop! This is the realest Yu-Gi-Oh! News Report that you’ll find, and of course it’s right here on ARG! We’ve reached a point in the game where there are options for competitive play that are not run by Konami Digital Entertainment(KDE).

These events offer much more flexible prize support and offer much more to the competitive player than KDE does at the current time. So for the better, more competitive player, ARG Read more
